Question by mzpkay: This cosmetic “may contain”?
When cosmetics say on the very bottom of the ingredients list that this product “may contain” blahblah, how much are they saying?
I’m allergic to mica and I want to use a face powder, but nearly all powders contain mica. Some have mica at the very top of the list and some have them at the way bottom after the words “may contain”. What is “may contain”??

Question by carpetpolo: How to ” open up” to my friend please help…..?
Ok so a month ago my great-grandad got diagnosed with terminal cancer , he’s got 2months left. Well i tend to keep stuff botteld up and last night my friend asked me how he was and how i was coping. She told me she’d always be there for me whenever i wanted no matter what and keeping stuff to myself won’t help. I completely trust her but I just find it hard to ” open up” and make myself vulnerable does anybody have any advice on how i can get over this problem?
But how do i bring the conversation up i don’t think she’ll ask again ?

Question by TasiaE: He likes me, but we can’t go out! What can I do?
I’ve liked this one guy for almost a year. Yesterday one of my friends from drama (this was during rehearsal yesterday with all us three) told me that he commented on my appearance, saying “Doesn’t (my name) look pretty in her costume and makeup?” And today, I also found out that he does actually like me…but here’s the thing: apparently, his FATHER, whom I’ve never met, hates me! And his older sister too. Apparently, he saw a picture of when the guy and I were in choir last year, and I was making a funny face, and that did it.
I have no idea why his sister hates me; I’ve seen her around, but never officially met her. So…the guy says it might be very difficult for me and him to go out, though we both want it.
p.s The guy is half japanese and half korean, and his dad is japanese. Isn’t there anything I can do, or is this it?
Thanks

Question by Thumbsupper!: What is the best way to “clean up” your desktop to make your computer function better?
I know it can be done, but my brother normally does this for me. Seeing as how he can’t help me with it lately, if anyone has information and steps for me to take to make my computer run more efficiently it would be greatly appreciated.

Question by Danielle: My boyfriend tried to commit suicide. (very long, sorry)?
Last night was my school dance, and my boyfriend basically did everything for it. The food, the dj, everything.
okay so yesterday i stayed home from school because i had the flu and my mom told me she didn’t want me going to this dance and getting more sick and getting everybody else sick. So i told my boyfriend. He then flipped out and ran into my house screaming at me telling me to get out of bed and that I’m not sick and i’m faking it and that I’m going. (i had a 100.2 fever) anwyay it’s not the first time he’s done something like this…like yelling at me getting really angry and pulling me somewhere. I told him to leave my house and that i never wanted to see him again(because he physically hurt me) and he pulled me out of bed and forced me to talk to him and i finally said i’ll go to the dance but i can barely stand up so i’m sitting down the whole time. My boyfriend then said okay and left to his friends house across the street from me. I don’t remember how it started but he kept texting me”i’m gonna kill myself tonight” i wasn’t believing any of it so i told him to shut up and come over and talk to me. He then started to explain to me how he was gonna do it and that he has a knife and he’s going to tonight after the dance so “make this a good last night for me. Make yourself look pretty. Do your hair and makeup” I was bawling. My mom asked what was wrong..I told her everything. I was crying hysterically on my bed and she called my dad. My boyfriend came to pick me up and my mom went outside to talk to his parents.My boyfriend came in and saw me crying and said get up we’re going get the fuck up don’t make me cry make this a good last night for me. then he took me into the car. we went to his friends hosue to take pictures and everyone was like wtf you look like shit. and my boyfriend just said that i’m sick. we left to the dance and everything got really blurry and it felt like a dream. i felt alone. i told my boyfriend i had to leave and he just kept holding me tight saying i’m not leaving and to make it a good last night for him and that he had a knife in his pocket and he was gonna pull it out right now if i left. i was bawling at a table and my friends had no idea what was happening. i then told one of my friends jamie and she was in shock and took me into the bathroom to clean up. she told mei had to tell someone. so me and her told the principle. and i called my dad. i went to go see my boyfriend and i told him i was sorry and that i loved him so much. the principle took him away and my teacher told me i did the right thing by telling someone. i kept thinking to myself “if i did the right thing, why do i feel so shitty about it?” my dad picked me up and my principle talked to him. i went home and tried to get my mind off of the pain by watching a movie;it only made if worse because of all the love in it and i missed my boyfriend” i was scared for 2 reasons. 1-hes not okay and went and did something really bad. and 2-he doesnt love me anymore. he then texted me and i had the biggest smile on my face. it said don’t tell anyone. then he told me that we can’t be together anymore, that its not healthy. and that his parents wont let him out for a while and he doesn’t know if he can see me for awhile.

someone please help me:/ i’m so depressed i honestly don’t know what to do with myself.

Question by uawriter1: Is it alright if I do not….?
Is it alright that I don’t wear makeup? I’m only 14 and just started high school this year. All of my friends wear makeup (and may I say, WAY too much) and it looks sort of um, well, bad, (but I don’t tell them that). Anyways, I feel like I have to wear it though……but I’m not comfortable with it, and it takes too much time to apply in the mornings (and I don’t have the time), and it also feels cakey on my skin (I got a makeover at a Clinique counter in the mall last year for my 13th birthday). The only actual “makeup” product I own is pretty much lip gloss. I have about 5 different ones-plus one ChapStick. Haha So, is this OK?
